A Philosophy of Purity

Pasquale De Marco

Beschreibung

In a world awash with information and competing ideas, clarity of thought and expression has become more crucial than ever. **A Philosophy of Purity** embarks on an intellectual odyssey, delving into the depths of philosophy and human existence to illuminate the profound questions that have captivated humanity for millennia.

With eloquence and erudition, this book explores the nature of reality, challenging readers to question their assumptions about the world around them. It delves into the contrasting perspectives of idealism and materialism, examining the implications of each for our understanding of the universe. The existence of God, a concept that has ignited countless debates throughout history, is also subjected to rigorous scrutiny, as the author presents a balanced and thought-provoking analysis of the arguments for and against the existence of a supreme being.

The limits of knowledge are also brought into sharp focus, as the book delves into the problem of induction and the challenges posed by skepticism. It examines the boundaries of human perception and the limitations of human reason, acknowledging the fallibility of our senses and the constraints of our cognitive abilities. Yet, amidst these challenges, the book also offers a glimmer of hope, exploring the possibility of absolute truth and the methods by which we can strive to attain it.

The value of truth is a recurring theme throughout the book, as the author explores its significance in our personal lives, our interactions with others, and our pursuit of knowledge. The relationship between truth and morality is examined, revealing the ways in which our understanding of what is true influences our ethical choices. The role of truth in science and philosophy is also brought to the forefront, as the book delves into the methods by which we seek to uncover and verify knowledge.

The problem of evil, a persistent enigma that has plagued humanity for centuries, is also addressed in depth. The author grapples with the question of why evil exists, examining the various philosophical and theological responses to this perplexing issue. With intellectual rigor and a keen eye for detail, the author presents a comprehensive exploration of this enduring problem, offering readers a deeper understanding of its complexities.

Insurrection - Rebellion Civil...

Hawa Allan

The little-known and under-studied 1807 Insurrection Act was passed to give the president the ability to deploy federal military forces to fend off lawlessness and rebellion, but it soon became much more than the sum of its parts. Its power is integrally linked to the perceived threat of black American equity in what lawyer and critic Hawa Allan demonstrates is a dangerous paradox. While the Act was initially used to repress rebellion against slavery, during Reconstruction it was invoked by President Grant to quell white-supremacist uprisings in the South. During the civil rights movement, it enabled the protection of black students who attended previously segregated educational institutions. Most recently, the Insurrection Act has been the vehicle for presidents to call upon federal troops to suppress so-called "race riots" like those in Los Angeles in 1992, and for them to threaten to do so in other cases of racial justice activism. 
 
 
 
Allan's distinctly literary voice underscores her paradigm-shifting reflections on the presence of fear and silence in history and their shadowy impact on the law. Throughout, she draws revealing insight from her own experiences as one of the only black girls in her leafy Long Island suburb, as a black lawyer at a predominantly white firm, and as a thinker about the use and misuse of appeals to law and order.

Darshan With Divinity

Radha Krsna Das

* "Whoever works for God, his work will be done by itself."* "Keep God in your heart like you keep money in the bank."Neem Karoli Baba known to his followers as Maharaj-ji - was a great Hindu guru, mystic, and devotee of Lord Hanuman. He is very well known outside India for being the spiritual master of a number of prominent Americans who traveled to India in the 1960s and 70s, including spiritual teachers Ram Dass, Bhagavan Das, and musicians Krishna Das and Jai Uttal. His ashrams are in Kainchi, Vrindavan, Rishikesh, Shimla, Neem Karoli village near Khimasepur in Farrukhabad, Bhumiadhar, Hanumangarhi, Delhi in India, and in Taos, New Mexico. Maharaji was a lifelong adept of bhakti-yoga and encouraged service to others (seva) as the highest form of unconditional devotion to God.There can be no biography of him. Facts are few, stories many. He seems to have been known by different names in many parts of India, appearing and disappearing through the years. His non-Indian devotees of recent years knew him as Neem Karoli Baba, but mostly as “Maharajji” – a nickname so commonplace in India that one can often hear a tea vendor addressed thus. Just as he said, he was "nobody". He gave no discourses; the briefest, simplest stories were his teachings. Usually, he sat or lay on a wooden bench wrapped in a plaid blanket while a few devotees sat around him. Visitors came and went; they were given food, a few words, a nod, a pat on the head or back, and they were sent away. There was gossip and laughter for he loved to joke.

Flowers Plants Fruits and Trees

Manly Palmer Hall

Flowers were chosen as symbols for many reasons. The great variety of flora made it possible to find some plant or flower which would be a suitable figure for nearly any abstract quality or condition. A plant might be chosen because of some myth connected with its origin, as the stories of Daphne and Narcissus; because of the peculiar environment in which it thrived, as the orchid and the fungus; because of its significant shape, as the passion flower and the Easter lily; because of its brilliance or fragrance, as the verbena and the sweet lavender; because it preserved its form indefinitely, as the everlasting flower; because of unusual characteristics as the sunflower and heliotrope, which have long been sacred because of their affinity for the sun.
